Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for preventing unintended operations on a slide-type mobile terminal with a touch screen by detecting sliding motion and cancelling touch input if it is performed during a sliding motion. This prevents accidental touches from executing functions or causing other unintended actions. The invention also includes a mobile terminal that implements this method.

Problems solved by technology

However, as the size of the display portion having the touch sensitive function is increased, general users are likely to press the display portion unintentionally when sliding the mobile phone.

Abstract

Disclosed is a touch recognition method for preventing an execution of a function associated with an icon by unintentionally touching the icon when a slide-type mobile terminal performs a sliding motion and a mobile terminal implementing such method. If a pre-command is inputted by a touch through the touch screen of the mobile terminal, a pre-command operation that is predetermined is performed. If a sliding motion is detected while the pre-command is performed, the pre-command operation is cancelled.
